:::I agree with you in principle. I just think to get a really good headstart on populating this database with the information of "interested first adopters", they should have at least the three basic Infoboxes to choose from -- (A) For-profit corporations, (B) Non-profits, and (C) Human beings. If these are pretty well designed from the get-go, then that minimizes the likelihood of massive re-formatting by all our active members at some point down the road. If I knew how to create a Box format from scratch, I would be happy to do it, but currently I don't. Should that be my next self-improvement task?

:::For example, for "Human beings", I think it would be appropriate to have Birthplace, Birthdate, Marital status, Children, NAICS code of primary occupation, [http://www.bls.gov/soc/soc_majo.htm Standard Occupational Code], Employer, Title, Residence location (at least city, maybe street address), Copyrighted works, Skills, and Hobbies. --[[User:MyWikiBiz|MyWikiBiz]] 19:14, 15 November 2006 (PST)

:::: OK, I'll try and finish up NPO & Human infoboxes this week. Armed with 3 basic std infoboxes, we'll at least have infobox style guidelines for others to adapt/expand for different applications. --[[User:Centiare|Centiare]] 07:30, 16 November 2006 (PST)
And I think we need to devise '''Rules of Style''' for:
And I think we need to devise '''Rules of Style''' for:
::::* '''Manager''' (general middle-management catch-all title)
::::* '''Manager''' (general middle-management catch-all title)
:::Adherence to such a "Style Guide" should by no means be considered mandatory, nor a perjorative assessment of any person's "actual" title at their company. It is merely a mechanism to make semantic searching more productive for more Centiare users. If only 3 companies call their CIO the "Data Ninja", that's really cute, but not very useful to Centiare users who are looking for "CIO" types of personnel in the Denver area. --[[User:MyWikiBiz|MyWikiBiz]] 19:33, 15 November 2006 (PST)
